The Swamp Fox is our new lapstrake dory. The boat is still
being built, but plans will be available soon. This would be considered an
advanced project, requiring some woodworking experience and proper tools (table
saw, router, bandsaw, etc.) We're building this one of Cypress board and
Fir ply.

This boat uses a slightly different approach than traditional
lapstrake, making it easier to build. There are no lofting requirements,
and the plans will include instruction on the "tricks" to make it easier.
